Description

This book is a bonbon for any baby boomer. . . . Lamb gets Felix s voice just right, and he does a spot-on job of evoking the special joys and trials of parochial school in the 60 s…Put a bow on this book and warm somebody s heart. — St. Petersburg TimesWally Lamb, the beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Hour I First Believed, I Know This Much Is True, and She s Come Undone, delivers a holiday treat with Wishin and Hopin –an unforgettable novella that captures the warmth and joy of the holiday season.It s 1964. LBJ and Lady Bird are in the White House, Meet the Beatles is on everyone s turntable, and ten-year-old Felix Funicello (distant cousin of the iconic Annette!) is doing his best to navigate fifth grade–easier said than done when scary movies still give you nightmares and you bear a striking resemblance to a certain adorable cartoon boy. But there are several things young Felix can depend on: the birds and bees are puzzling, television is magical, and this is one Christmas he s never going to forget.Poignant and hilarious, in a vein similar to Jean Shepherd s A Christmas Story and David Sedaris s The Santaland Diaries, Lamb s Christmas tale focuses on a feisty parochial school fifth grader named Felix Funicello–a distant cousin of the iconic Annette!
